peacefully from..this life .•do thegreat

and stirling worth a self-made man

to him as he related many interesting
sketches of his life from boyhood to
manhood and through the years of
bis later life. His father, the late
John McTaggart, (whose father was
a native of Ayrshire, Scotland) em-
igrated from York State the time.

DETRIOTERS IN SYMPATHY •
WITH CANADIANS
The following paragraph is taken
from the letter from an Exeter Old
Boy now in Detroit to his parents
in town. '4Was at the Allies Bazaar
last night (held in the Billy Sunday
Tabernacle. They were raising money
for the different countries. During
the ,pictures of our Canadian boys in
active service at the front. Sergeant
Middlemiss, :hero of Gallipoli, :came'
on the stage assisted by his wiiie., He
is 'blind. Ile tasked for assistance) for
himself and his fellowmen who had
lost their .eyesight while at the. war
and saythe crowds of men that went
nap and pinned. one -(dollar bills onhis
hat, coat and sleeves, etc. One trnan
'put a $20 bill on his coat. I think
I am safe in saying this man got
$1000.00 pinned on h'm. You canliard-
Ily believe how readily the U.. S. peo-
ple respond to the help of( the Allies
and especially Canada. They e,heerec
and cheered our Canadian represent
atives. One thing I noticed they all
stood up for "Oh Canada, Deal'? IC.an-
ada" as well us the National Anthem
THE NECESSITY FOR
GREATER ECONOMY •
If the.. people as a whole under-
stood /clearly why it is .neceesa.ry to
economize, there 'would be a much
greater response to theappeals to
the leaders of the nation. Theen+
ormous purchases made by the Ailiessl
from our manufacturers have entail-
ed the payment of higher wages to'.
industrial workers and thus, from
the very necessities .of the Empire;
the latter find themselves' •pos essed!
of a greater ,purchasing power than
at any previous time. This power can
be used for either selfish gratif ice
tion or. for ;helping to win: the war.
If the former -the selfish-" 'course ca
followed is practically frittering away
theresources of the Empire. Oni the
other hand the stl:loutghtful patriot/
will save .every 'cent to letai1 ,to this
country, Those of the habit of spend
(hog freely are ttpt to look with aver-
sion upon those with a disposition to
save, but the time !bein, those who
Ido save are +the ones' who forge, Citic y

HICKS FORECASTS
A regular storm period is central

27th. Disturbing eauses and things to
expect. Added to the regular. Vulcan
disturbance at this time, rememtber',,

period, (still in the Mars, period, with
the conjunction of the Sun, Moon
and Earth on the 25th, ;;Moon al, the
'extreme ,point on the 2Gth, and in
perigee on the. 27th. The superior con
,junction with, the Earth and. Sun on
the 23rd, may also be considered as
,a 'disturbing factor at -this time. The
first symptoms of returning 'stormed
will be noted in the western states)
as early as, the 22nd and the 23rd -
that is. the barometer will begin( to
fall. the temperature will rise and
winds shift to southerly and icloudl3
form in these sections. By the 24tl.4 to
the 25th these conditions will move
eastward into central regions, with
rain turning to snow in the western
regions. On and .touching the 25th, 26
th and 27th, rain, wind. and snow ren-
ters
enters will pass the central Mississippi
valley, and on eastward toward the
Atlantic Ocean. All these November
storms 'will pay their special respect
to all the regions of the great, north.-
ern
orth-ern lakes, The center of. the Venus
disturbance falls on the 28th, audits
powerful influence may he expected
to greatly intensify all storms and
weather changes at this time. .A
great atmospheric wave ma •
p be in-
duced to flow southward from north-

Moon's declination south. This- wai
aggravate the suddenne.sts and (sever-

about the 20th, 27th, and 28th and
greatly augment the high barometric

low in the wake of the s'orms, A very
sharp November 'blizzard may not
be thought a thing increditable at
